Even then it would be more likely to have gone into the back of her thigh than the front as the video shows. What's also puzzling is the apparent lack of any bruising around the entry wound. I'd have expected to see some marking from the bars.
As for the brake debate - I ride F&R when fixed. Went to front only and had a crash when my worn SPD cleat unclipped whilst pulling a skid stop, grabbed the front brake and went over the bars resulting in a broken scaphoid. Since then I'll only ride with two brakes. It may not be cool, but then I never was to begin with.
